Vickie Bruno. Wow. What an amazing woman!
She came in to talk to our class
about Sign Language. I havent taken a signing class in about 2 years and was definitely a little...well a lot rusty
on everything but the alphabet! She isn't deaf, but is so passionate about signing that she went to Galludet school
for the deaf (!!!). We went over a few basic signs the first day.
I was only there for one more of her sessions
since my grandmother passed away on the next Thursday and I had the Service Learning conference the next.
The last
week we played sign language bingo! It's so funny to me that there are college students who turn into giddy little kids
when given the opportunity to play games in class and compete for prizes! haha Which, by the way the prizes were
quite unique and useful: Popcorn, Pringles, Kleenex (hehe :)), and Cake mix!
The game was definitely a good wrap up on her part! She left us a video of fairy tales that
are acted out using sign. That should be a blast to watch! :)
